Do you know what "candlestick" is? It's a special holder for a candle. It's like a candle's best friend that helps it stand up straight and tall.

Imagine you have a long stick, like a pencil, but it's made for a candle instead of for writing. A candlestick is like that stick, but it's usually made of metal, wood, or even glass. It has a flat top where you can place a candle, and sometimes it has a fancy base to keep it steady on a table.

Candlesticks have been around for hundreds of years. A long time ago, before we had things like electric lights, people used candles to see in the dark. They would put a candle in a candlestick and light it up when it got dark outside. It was like having a little sun inside their homes!

Nowadays, we don't need candles to see in the dark because we have lights that we can just switch on and off. But people still use candlesticks for special occasions, like when they want to make a room look pretty and cozy for a birthday party or during the holiday season.

They can also be used for things like camping or during a power outage. It makes sure the candle can stand up and shine its light for everyone to see. In today's drawing tutorial, let's learn how to draw a realistic candlestick, including a candle, try it if you like!
